Acclaimed writers and artists throughout the comic book industry will come together beginning this week in WAKANDA #1 to highlight the rich tapestry of the Black Panther’s homeland like never before in a brand-new limited series!
Spinning out of recent events in John Ridley’s epic run on BLACK PANTHER, T’Challa is no longer welcome in the land he once ruled, so who is this proud nation without its king?
This exciting new miniseries answers that question and more as each issue spotlights a different fan-favorite Wakandan character as they rise up to protect their great nation in exciting new stories by a wide range of creators.
In WAKANDA #1, writer Stephanie Williams and artist Paco Medina start things off with an in-depth tale about T’Challa’s genius younger sister and former Black Panther, Shuri who is set to prove that being without the Black Panther doesn’t mean Wakanda is without heroes to protect it – and that there is a reason she too once wielded the power.
